On behalf of the Forrest County Board of Supervisors, we'd like to echo Terry Steed's sentiments in his letter to the editor in thanking the many who have pitched in to help us recover from the F4 tornado.

You are all indeed a godsend. Well put, Terry! I wish to thank WDAM for their coverage: I'm sure your broadcast saved lives. I need to personally thank the women of University Baptist Church, who selflessly prepared lunches for our county road crews daily for well over a week. The men and women of UBC's congregation have been an inspiration in their assistance during the recovery.
